Happy 4th of July!!!





We love the new fireworks that make shapes!!!

Here's a big heart for America:
O land beyond compare,
Thee I love best!

And for Emma.

Look at the moon, sweetie.
We will gaze at that same moon.
And we'll be thinking of you!





AMERICA
Henry van Dyke

I love thine inland seas,
Thy groves of giant trees,
Thy rolling plains;
Thy rivers' mighty sweep,
Thy mystic canyons deep,
Thy mountains wild and steep,
All thy domains;

Thy silver Eastern strands,
Thy Golden Gate that stands
Wide to the West;
Thy flowery Southland fair,
Thy sweet and crystal air,
O land beyond compare,
Thee I love best!



How fortunate we are to be born in a free land.
It is a glorious thing.

As Francis Schaeffer says;


How should we then live?


Freedom without some sort of anchor goes awry. Like a kite that has been let go of. Who or what is holding your string?

and after thinking of that....

enjoy those fireworks and have fun at your picnic :o)



Encourage one another,
